Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation The isolated virus caused mosaic and leaf yellowing symptoms on Mucuna pruriens.
- Observation Vigna unguiculata var. TVu 76 was a susceptible host through which the virus was purified.
- Observation The purified virus yield was 7.2 mg/kg.
- Observation The isolated virus had UV absorption at 260 nm of 1.53±0.00.
- Observation The isolated virus had UV absorption at 280 nm of 1.45±0.00.
- Observation The virus nucleic acid content was calculated as 72.9%.
- Observation Agarose gel electrophoresis showed no secondary band for the purified virus.
- Observation Spectrophotometry showed an absorbance curve at 260 nm for the purified virus.
- Observation Antiserum against the virus yielded 16 000μL at 0.3 mg/ml.
- Observation The antiserum titre against the virus was 1:2000.
- Observation At this dilution, the titre was two and a half times the healthy control.
- Observation PAS ELISA found 50.0% heterologous to homologous serological relationship between the isolate and TMV Muguga strain.
